    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Owners of separated premises, being at the same time co-owners of a common property, participate in the management of a common property in accordance with the principles set by the provisions of Chapter 4 of the Act of 24 June, 1994, on the ownership of premises. The afore-mentioned provisions do not regulate the rules of such participation in the event of  co-ownership of separated premises. In this respect interpretive doubts arise whether in passing resolutions on the managementof a common property, the co-owners of separated premises have one common vote, or whether they may vote individually. The present article attempts to determine the above question, by referring to the regulations under the act on the ownership of premises, concerning the relation between the separate ownership of premises and the shared co-ownership, and the Civil Code regulations on co-ownership. As a result of the findings, an interpretive conclusion is drawn in accordance with which co-owners of separated premises who participate in passing resolutions on the management of a common property, have one common vote carrying weight equal to their indivisible share in the  co-ownership of a common property. The discussion offers a series of arguments for the validity of the present thesis, and presents views on the problem discussed, as expressed in the science of civil law and judicial decisions.Artykuł nie zawiera abstraktu w języku polski

    Wynagrodzenie współwłaściciela z tytułu wyłącznego korzystania z rzeczy wspólnej przez innego współwłaściciela i jego domownika. Glosa do postanowienia Sądu Najwyższego z dnia 11 stycznia 2018 r. (III CSK 349/16)

    The findings presented in the commentary aim at assessing the legitimacy of the Supreme Court’s view expressed in the decision of 11 January 2018 (III CSK 349/16), according to which the co-owner is obliged towards other co-owners excluded from holding and using the item being the object of fractional ownership to pay the compensation for the use of this item by his household member. The discussion covers the concept and civil-law status of the household member and the admissibility of accepting the household member by the co-owner of a property owned as a fractional ownership. The problems of the co-owner’s liability for the behaviour of the household member and the liability of the household member for his/her own behaviour towards the co-owners deprived of the use of the joint property were also discussed.Ustalenia zawarte w glosie zmierzają do oceny zasadności poglądu Sądu Najwyższego wyrażonego w postanowieniu z dnia 11 stycznia 2018 r. (III CSK 349/16), zgodnie z którym współwłaściciel jest zobowiązany wobec współwłaścicieli wyłączonych od posiadania i używania rzeczy będącej przedmiotem współwłasności ułamkowej do zapłaty wynagrodzenia za korzystanie z tej rzeczy przez jego domownika. W ramach rozważań omówiono pojęcie i status cywilnoprawny domownika oraz dopuszczalność przyjęcia domownika przez współwłaściciela nieruchomości objętej współwłasnością ułamkową. Poruszony został także problem odpowiedzialności współwłaściciela za zachowanie domownika oraz odpowiedzialności domownika za własne zachowanie w stosunku do współwłaścicieli odsuniętych od korzystania z rzeczy wspólnej

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    Częściowe zrzeczenie się ograniczonego prawa rzeczowego – glosa do postanowienia Sądu Najwyższego z dnia 22 czerwca 2023 r., II CSKP 1273/22

    Get PDF
    The commented decision of the Supreme Court concerns the issue of a partial waiver of a limited property right, a matter that has not previously been addressed separately in the case law. In this ruling, the Supreme Court formulated a thesis excluding the possibility of such a partial waiver of a limited property right, both in terms of its subject matter and content. The Court also stated that a declaration of will to waive an easement results in the expiration of that right if it includes all co-beneficiaries. The considerations, based on Art. 246 and 285 of the Act of 23 April 1964 – Civil Code, indicate that the position adopted by the Supreme Court deserves approval, with the caveat that it seems permissible to reduce the subject of a joint limited property right through a unilateral legal act by the entitled party. The commentary also highlights that waiving an easement that increases the utility of the entire or a designated part of a property held in co-ownership requires adherence to the rules of management applicable to the dominant property.Glosowane postanowienie Sądu Najwyższego dotyczy problemu częściowego zrzeczenia się ograniczonego prawa rzeczowego, który nie był przedmiotem odrębnej wypowiedzi w dotychczasowej judykaturze. W powyższym orzeczeniu Sąd Najwyższy sformułował tezę wykluczającą wspomniane częściowe zrzeczenie się ograniczonego prawa rzeczowego, zarówno w zakresie przedmiotowym, jak i treściowym. Stwierdził również, że oświadczenie woli o zrzeczeniu się służebności gruntowej prowadzi do wygaśnięcia tego prawa, jeśli obejmuje każdego ze współuprawnionych. Poczynione na tle art. 246 i art. 285 ustawy z dnia 23 kwietnia 1964 r. – Kodeks cywilny rozważania wskazały, że przytoczone stanowisko Sądu Najwyższego zasługuje na aprobatę, z tym jednak zastrzeżeniem, iż dopuszczalna wydaje się redukcja przedmiotu ograniczonego prawa rzeczowego obciążającego więcej niż jedną rzecz w drodze jednostronnej czynności prawnej uprawnionego. W glosie podkreślono także, że zrzeczenie się służebności gruntowej zwiększającej użyteczność całej lub oznaczonej części nieruchomości objętej współwłasnością wymaga zachowania zasad zarządu, którym podlega nieruchomość władnąca
